I really hate the fact, that new DC logo is on my otherwise very swanky looking second Kamandi omnibus.

I miss the Marvel bar across the top of the comic.

I still think the new DC logo stinks, but I don't hate it quite as much as I thought. When it appears at the end of 'Arrow' each week I don't find it all that displeasing, for example.

I don't think Marvel have ever had a strong logo.

Greg, I like all of those you posted. Especially the DC Bullet and the Marvel Comics "M" logo.

Remember this one?  If you blinked, you missed it, but I always liked it.

Why did the company called it POP ART Productions?

Marvel was riding the wave of popularity of pop art in general. The most visiable proponent was probably Andy Warhol. I suppose the general concept was that popular culture concepts, like comic books, could be seen as real "art."

I still don't understand the concept behind the new DC logo. I can't recall reading that anyone really likes it or much cares about it, so I have to wonder what the point was? Does stuff like this affect sales or consumer perception in the slightest when it comes to a comic book audience? Perhaps the underused logo design team at DC needed a reason to justify their existence? Maybe they're all big The Velvet Underground & Nico fans?

I'm not sure why DC change logos so soon after switching to the "spin" logo.

Preferred the DC bullet.  I also like the Marvel Comics box.  Those were my favorites.

I have a framed cover (taken from a calendar) with that one on it.
